Product description

The Snap-On Plastic Alloy Rim Protector (Eaa0329G17 A) is an indispensable accessory for any modern tire shop working with expensive alloy or painted wheels. This specialized protector is designed to snap onto the metal components of the tire changer—such as the mount/demount head or clamping jaws—to provide a non-marring interface between the machine and the wheel rim. Crafted from high-impact plastic, it effectively prevents metal-on-metal contact, eliminating the risk of scratches, gouges, or cosmetic damage during the tire changing process. Using these protectors is a standard best practice for maintaining customer satisfaction and protecting wheels from the mechanical forces applied by industrial tire service equipment. This part is a consumable that should be replaced regularly as it shows signs of wear.
